FoO presents the Calendar's first offical, and rather silly, awards ceremony. It is now over, but I'll leave this here so you can chack out the winners if you missed it. Go on, have a look'see...

WARNING: Exam Season, RPGs may move slowly.

WhatistheCalendar?Howdoesitwork?

The Calendar is basically a floodgate. It is here to stop tirades of RPG's flooding the forum, then dieing, then there being a period where no RPG's exist.

To this end the calendar exists. When you come up with an RPG idea you submit it, then when enough have said that they're interested you go on the waiting list until there is a slot and then the RPG can begin!

HowdoIsubmitmyRPG?

To submit an RPG to the community fill in this simple form

RPG Name: (The title of your RPG)Moderator: (Your forum name)Plot: (The plot for your RPG, this could be your title crawl)Character/Faction Based: (Just put down character, faction or either if you haven't decided)Number of people interested: (I'll fill this in as we go along. This field will be deleted when your RPG has reached 5 people)

Arethereanyrules?

Yes, these rules are not subject to change, but most are common sense anyway

-If you have a problem contact me, my email is friend_of_old@hotmail.co.uk

-To make things easier to run here I have introduced a colour coding system for important postsType RPG Idea... in Bold Red if you are submitting an ideaType Interested in... in Bold Lime if you are interested in an ideaType Update for... in Bold Orange if you want me to update something on the main postType Probation for... in Bold Yellow if you want me to put someone on the probation list (I will ask for reasons)

Howmany...

Yes there are limits to things:

-There will only be 5 RPG's at a time

-You need 5 people to be interested in your RPG for it to go forward

-You can have up to 3 RPG ideas at a time

-You can moderate 1 RPG at a time

RPG Name: A New Empire Part 2Moderator: GorogPlot:

Two years have passed since the Battle of Endor. Imperial commanders and Moffs break away from High Command on Coruscant, while the remaining loyalists struggle to keep the forces of the Alliance of Free Planets at bay. However, while having a wide base of support, the former Rebellion lacks the military resources to take Coruscant.

In a surprise move, Alliance and Imperial leaders meet on the planet ITHOR. Drawing up a peace treaty, the delegates decide on a new government, transforming the Empire into a constitutional monarchy with the reinstatement of the IMPERIAL SENATE, led by a President appointed by the figurehead Emperor who has been elected by the Grand Moffs. MON MOTHMA is soon appointed to the post of President of the Imperial Senate.

However, some former Rebels refuse to recognize the Treaty of Ithor, and accuse Mon Mothma of having sold out the ideals of the Rebellion to assume control of the galaxy. These Rebels maintain arms in order to establish a true Republic. Similarly, some Imperial worlds denounce what they call a false Empire, and instead aid the Imperial warlords. As the new Empire and its Senate try to establish authority, the Galactic Civil War enters a new phase, manipulated by shadowy individuals with their own agenda...

Character/Faction Based: Character

RPG Name: Age of the WarlordsModerator: FoOPlot:

[c]After the disasterous failure of Palpatine's attempted formation of a unified Galactic Empire the Republic collapsed and the galaxy fell into ten years of darkness. Now three factions, the Thyferran Alliance, the Grand Directorate and the Azure Imperium have arisen and vy for control of the core worlds, using battered fleets with ancient clone wars ships and cheap cruisers, a shadow of the galaxy's former glory.

Over all of this the Church of Truth holds sway, binding the planets of the galaxy under its vicious doctorine. However one team of Directorate scientists on Kuat dare to defy them. In an attempt to create the ultimate weapon they unleash the ultimate sin, they unleash the Force.

Character/Faction Based: Character, with mnior fleet details

Moderators

I've decided to add this section so that people can see at a glance if their favourite moderators or friends are planning an RPG at a glance, or if they're on the probation list. Thus I'm assigning everyone a colour, if you'd prefer a different colour don't hesitate to ask.

ProbationList

This is where a list of people and their crimes are put. If you are on this list it means something you have done has been deemed counter-productive to an RPG or the RPG community. Being on this list does not stop you creating RPG's through the calendar or playing in them. It is here to warn people of what you have done, so that if they don't want to run the risk of you messing something up half-way through.

Crimes include things like godmodding, flaming, spamming, quitting for no valid reason, etc. Basically anything that harms an RPG.

Darth Kiev: For abandoning ANE without reason, causing death of the RPG.

But remember, we do not tolerate failure in this forum Mr. Persia.

Welcome back Persia

Also, for FUTURE reference (don't worry Bando, I won't start anything myself whilst ANE is still going strong), who might be interested in another KOTOR-era RPG? I've been going through KOTOR II over the past few days and I've got an urge to RP it

Quoted from Moff Yittreas:

I'll set up soon.

Is that Christmas soon, New Years soon or don't hold your breath soon?

Oh, man, Kiev, I think I just got teary eyed thinking of that RPG. Best freaking RPG I was ever in. I'd be your number one supporter.

Remember how much I sucked then? Good freaking times, man.

EDIT: If we did one, I'd be happy to bring back Grawi as Captain of the Endar Spire. If we did two, I'd like to try an idea I had in my failed RPG about two more survivors of the Harbinger (the founders of the Dofine/Donei lines too. Way too obsessed with them? I think not)

I was just skimming over it again and a lot of my posts are roughly four-to-five lines long, and NOT in this colour. How times have changed, eh?

As for which KOTOR RPG to do, I suppose I'll leave it to popular demand, so people can choose between;

1. Knights of the Old Republic I2. Knights of the Old Republic II; assuming the canon-story that Revan was male and redeemed himself.3. Knights of the Old Republic III; assuming the canon-story that Revan was male and redeemed himself, and that the Exile was female and went off to help Revan in the Unknown Regions.

Yeah, to be honest I'm not very keen on III either - I think No.1 has my vote, as if it is successful we then have the option to progress into our own version of No.2.

When you say KotOR I, do you mean with Revan starting out brain-washed? If so, I'll take Zaalbar.

It'll start where the game starts; Malak's attack on the Endar Spire over Taris, so yes, Revan will be in his "brain-washed" state.

By the way, I'll be calling either Malak or Bastila, haven't decided yet - I don't want to take more than one major character if this turns out to be popular.

Actually, instead of Zaalbar I'll take a unique character (Sssh...)

Will we have the traveling party, a whole new party, or no party at all? If it's a new party, then can I ask that my character be a part of it?

It'll be completely up to the RPers themselves to determine that, but I imagine that characters like Revan, Carth and Bastila will stick close together and probably others too, so the likelihood of there being a 'party' is high.

And yes, it's absolutely possible to have different characters making up the numbers - we'll stick to the KOTOR basic premise, but most of the details will be decided as best suited to everyone.

Also....post in ANE Cheapy Well, you or Melkor. I need to get my characters moving!

Anyway, I've got to look around a bit. And why I'm needed so much for KotOR anyway?

EDIT: Btw, even if I will not be in, during my KotORIII and MW RPGs (and I think that also during later Cheapy's MW RPG) many OR ships of the KotOR era were created\named. I propose to use the same names too.
